What would you do....

if you were guaranteed you would not fail?

At school on Thursday the principal posed that question to the seniors. Next week they will be graduating and heading out into the world. Their future is wide open and anything is possible. She went on to tell them that if they put the effort and energy into anything, they would not fail. They had the ability to do anything at all if they worked hard enough and wanted it bad enough. How true. Granted, there are things that some people just will never be able to do no matter how hard they work, but overall all - if you want it bad enough and work hard enough you can do just about anything.

I was thinking about that in reference to myself and my healthy (or lack thereof) ways. I think that I just don't want it bad enough. That's why I'm inconsistent with the eating and the working out. I just don't want it bad enough. I need find that fire, the force that drives me to want it. Want it so bad I will do whatever it takes to get it. I did a post a while back how most of my life things have come pretty easy to me. Seriously. I decide I want something and it happens. I wonder what would happen if I applied that desire and determination to weight loss and fitness? I think it's time to find out. Motivation gets you started, habit keeps you going.....
